"Hey man!" Phil pats my back, "This is Alice." I look at Alice. My god shes beautiful, very actually. shes got the face of Marilyn Monroe, I couldn't keep my eyes off of her when she came closer.

"Hey." She smiles and shakes my hand.

"Whats up." Phil opened up the entrance door and pointed to the food section.

"Hey I'm gonna grab some food, mind if I grab a drink for Alice?"

"Just make it quick." Phil nodded and went inside. It was just Alice and I outside. She was a quiet girl but I couldn't help my eyes idolizing her.

"Could I please butt off a cigarette, if that's alright?" I pulled out my pack of smokes.

"Sure." I handed her a couple. Her voice was soft and shy.

"Thanks." She pulled out a lighter and lit her cigarette. We stood in silence. She seems awkward, which was fine.

"So, you and my buddy Phil..."

"He's pretty cool." I was nosey with all these women he brought around me so I would always see if they were here to screw or be crew.

"You think he's cute?" She chuckled at that question.

"I don't look at people like that, I'm just here to have a friend," she took a hit of her cigarette, "though, who would believe me?" I slightly smile.

"You're right, usually he brings chicks that he screws, that's why I ask." Her eyes gazed upon mine. I felt something that I hadn't felt, I wanted to know her more, I wanted to know her for years.

" Well, I am most definitely not looking for that, anyways," her eyes gleamed with curiosity, "I never caught your name."

"My name's Creed." She smiled. I don't know why.

"I like that name." My stomach felt butterflies, I didn't even know this chick and that compliment made me feel whole.

"Thanks."

"No problem." Phil finally came back out.

"You two behaving?" He snickered and gave Alice her energy drink. I rolled my eyes to the comment he made.

"Thank you Creed for letting me have a drink." Alice opened her canned drink and took a sip. I nod as a youre welcome.

"Well Alice is gonna be staying at my place for the night so... And we're probably not gonna be asleep anyways but just wanted to let you know man." I flick my cigarette out into the distance.

" Alright well, I'm probably not gonna be back anytime soon cause Lindsey wanted me to stop by again." Phil smirked.

"Yo booty call called you huh?" He laughed, Phil looked to see if Alice was laughing but she was just listening.

"Yeah, she's been having me come over alot more lately..." I sounded monotoned.

"Well obviously you're not happy about it so why even go?" Alices question came out of nowhere. I looked at her and thought about my reply.

"I'm a man," she stared into my soul as I was answering seeming as if that wasn't a good enough answer,"You should know a man's nature." She nodded.

"Sorry, I should've minded my business." She gave a slight smile to me and I returned the smile back to her.

"It's alright."  Phil looked at her and I then proceeded to check his phone.

"Well man well see you when you get back." Phil signaled goodbye and Alice waved goodbye.

"Nice meeting you Creed."

"You as well Alice."
